Anybody here ever try ReactOS? Apparently it's a free alternative to Windows XP. I'm thinking of trying it out. I'm trying to install it on a new machine right now but I'm having some problems with the installation.....:faint:

I downloaded it and tried to install it on my hard drive. I want to run it off my machine I'm no longer using for anything else, so I reformated using FAT, popped in the disk to install, and restarted. Rather then getting the 2 screens as shown below I was supposed to get, I went through all the screens HERE (http://picsw33.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoid=29986012) instead. (click each one to advance... what I did at the bottom as captions) I'm at a loss of how to go about installing now...
